Britcar at Brands over the weekend

General Meets + Track Day Reports

I had to leave early during the Britcar race. Randy I think I saw you in the paddock and the tannoy mentioned that you were in with Simon? How did you get on? And why did Simon start from the Pits? It looked like you removed a bit of body work. when I left Simon was passing quite a few cars

Simon decided to take off the roof and unfortunately the clip holding in the rear window come undone on the warm up lap so he had to pull in to take off the roll bar cover and take the rear window out. The language was quite amusing.
Nothing to do with me as I didnt know you could even take the rear window out.
Other than that bit of misfortune Simon was running well and made up the time he lost starting in the pits, safety car came out a couple of times so was manic pit stop situation, problem was the Belcar lot were still in the garages so there was a severe lack of room.
Good race, the holden/falcon was stupidly fast in a straight line I belive randy brought the car home in 12th so congratulations after a couple on DNF.
Couple of Pictures.

There were some fantastic cars there. Love to know how these people fund there habit. And you right the Holden was 7 seconds ahead on the first lap. Simons elise looked so small compared to the other cars. I bet they were well pissed off when he started to pass them. Did you hear the marcos start up in the paddock? If I was behind that in my Exige I would have reversed off the line and hidden behind the nearest tree.
